Yay you! This is the start of something big! Prioritizing your mental health is a decision to be commended and I am glad you're here. I believe in a unique approach that is tailored to the specific needs of individual clients. As a native Washingtonian, mother of five, and career educator, I have a wide range of experience from which to guide, advise, and assist clients in their personal pursuit of happiness and self-fulfillment. I have a special affinity for women’s issues, young adults establishing independence, empty nesters, and women who are re-establishing personal identity after major (sometimes traumatic) life transitions.
I take an integrative approach with clients as partners in their own care. A strong therapeutic relationship is at the core of my practice, with a healthy dose of cognitive behavioral therapy, a person-centered approach, and mindfulness training. Providing a space of warmth and compassion offers the safety clients need to confidently make changes.
I credit my own personal therapy experience with changing the trajectory of my life. I encourage you to be brave and boldly take this step toward controlling your own destiny. Make today the day that change begins!
